Live Auction: Delicious in DB: Dungeon Meshi Diorama
A framed 9"x11" (23 x 28cm) diorama of 6 main characters from the Delicious in Dungeon series. Laios, Chilchuck, Marcille, and Senshi prepare a meal, while several walking mushrooms and a dryad pumpkin keep watch. Falin, Izutsumi, and a giant red dragon eye peer down from arches on the stone wall above.
The entire diorama, this time shown in a dark room. The glowing eye and torches are clearly visible and striking.
A close-up of several characters in the diorama. Marcille excitedly prepares to blast a walking mushroom into oblivion, while Laios sheathes his sword beneath a stone relief of a winged lion. Various bowls and food items litter the floor.
A close-up of Chilchuck, leaning up against the dungeon wall. Several crates and food bowls litter the floor. A large dryad pumpkin beams a blank but sultry smile at the viewer.
A close-up of the giant red dragon eye, inset into a large archway. A small walking mushroom sits in the arch in front of it. Both are flanked by two small flame sconces on the wall. The sconces and the eye are both lit with golden LEDs.
Another close-up of several characters, giving a better shot of the campfire. Marcille and Laios sit to the left of the campfire, while Senshi carries a large pan full of yellow-ish stew to the fire. The campfire is lit with a glowing golden LED.
A close-up of Izutsumi, crouching in an arch above the scene. She is sitting on all fours, scowling at the scene below.
A close-up of Falin, standing in an arch above the scene. She is holding her staff, waving, and smiling warmly.
Winner: Mr. Horrible for $6,543.21
E-eat the monsters!? I refuse! Not even once! But... It's for charity? Well then, I suppose we could at least try...
Wait! Don't eat the craft, Marcille!
This framed shadowbox depicts a cooking scene inspired by Delicious in Dungeon, popular manga-turned-anime. Laios, Marcille, Chilchuck, and Senshi gather around a small campfire, while Falin and Izutsumi flank a large dragon eye above. The eye and torches in the dungeon glow!
Materials include clay and lightweight resin, painted with acrylics to achieve bright cartoon color. LEDs powered by 2x CR2032 batteries give it a warm dungeon glow.
The plexiglass can be cleaned with a mild soapy solution (if needed) and a microfiber cloth. Do not use glass cleaners, paper towels, or similar: it may fog or scratch. Batteries are user replaceable and easily accessible on the back.
Thank you, and may all your adventures be delicious!
(Special thanks to IsekaiHeavyIndustries, DrDong, ClayRade, and ExhaustedWeeb for the printable character models!)
